Surprise your mother with unforgettable Mother's Day outing ideas!
Mother’s Day is celebrated every year on the second Sunday in May. First started in the United States in 1914, Mother’s Day is now celebrated all over the world. Depending on the country, the date may vary. In Europe, however, it tends to fall on the second Sunday in May.
To help you mark the occasion, we’ve put together four ideas for family days out. Maybe you’ll find some inspiration. 😊
If the weather’s nice, why not make the most of it and spend some time in nature? There are plenty of places in Switzerland for you to explore on foot. Here’s a small selection for different abilities:
The Rigi Panorama Trail
The well-known cliff top trail from Rigi Kaltbad to Rigi Scheidegg promises breathtaking views of Lake Lucerne and, with its low level of difficulty, is a leisurely way to explore the mountain landscape of Central Switzerland.
Creux du Van
Switzerland’s ‘Grand Canyon’ sits between the cantons of Neuchâtel and Vaud. It promises a breathtaking circular hike over the giant natural amphitheatre in the Val de Travers. The hike, which takes around four hours in total, is classified as moderately difficult.
Murgsee circular trail
We recommend the Murgsee circular trail for hikers fond of exploring mountain lakes. A moderately difficult hike that can be started from Mornen.
If the weekend promises nice weather, a hearty picnic outdoors is a must. Find a nice spot in a meadow or a park and invite your mum along for a cosy picnic. And the best thing about it is that it doesn’t take much to organise! Grab a blanket, some drinks and a few snacks and you’re good to go! 😊

Do you and your mum like to go exploring? Then why not take her to a flea market and enjoy the atmosphere together? A great opportunity to have a rummage – who knows, you may even snap yourself up a vintage gem or two. 😊
For sports-loving families, we suggest a bike tour. This will get you moving and allow you to experience moments together that will be remembered for years to come. Where you decide to go is completely up to you: perhaps a bike tour through a forest, by the water, or maybe even a circular route? There’s something for everyone.
